Volkswagen Golf reviews

Volkswagen Golf Hatchback (2020 onwards)

Parkers rating: 4.1 out of 54.1

Facelift has made a good car better – but it’s not quite the best

New infotainment system is one of the best on sale
Loads of engines, including new PHEV systems
Build quality has improved over the old model

Not as engaging to drive as the Focus
Revised Skoda Octavia offers better value
Simpler suspension on entry-level cars
